When asked by a reporter if Elon Musk’s ties to foreign countries and his joint takeover of Twitter presented a threat to US national security, President Biden said that Musk’s links were ‘worth investigating’. The US president was cautious in his response not to impute any wrongdoing on Musk’s part, but said: ‘I think that Elon Musk’s cooperation and/or technical relationships with other countries is worthy of being looked at.’
He added: ‘Whether or not he is doing anything inappropriate … I’m not suggesting that. I’m suggesting that they’re worth being looked at’
